Happy Birthday, Fred Lynn: The Original Gangsta

It's his birthday. How do YOU think the former AL Rookie of the Year is gonna spend it?

I saw Freddie Lynn at Red Sox Winter Weekend a while back, and I wish I’d asked him if he remembered this classic commercial. Or, more importantly, if he ended up playing a few rounds of “hide the Gold Glove” with these ladies.

(Also, I’m no directing genius, but I’m amazed that Fred’s sly drawl as he delivers the line, “something that lasts allllll day,” didn’t score him at least a Love Boat guest spot back in the day.)
